I had an educational tour of Cebu and Bohol which are 2 of the biggest tourist areas in the Philippines. My college SLU organized our trip with the goal of sharing us to visit and gather knowledge of what it is like to experience ourselves about tourism, and to observe the common traits related to HRM which consists of work that involves lodging and food service that is most important in the hospitality industry. The outing is regarded to be a learning process to help on our training to be future HRM staff or management. My college believes that the best way to gain knowledge and a good contributor of the hotel industry is to be involved in excursions that allow you to envision what career you are taking, and get a clear view on what to study and skills to improve on to be a better employee after graduation.
Since Bohol and Cebu are top traveler destinations you can tell that the islands are in very high demand. My college made a superb choice of selecting the two islands as it was a great place to gain exposure for time since I am new to the HRM industry.
When I arrived in Bohol, I really enjoyed the island and the beautiful ambiance of the place. We were able to visit the Loboc River, where we were able to enjoy a buffet of a lot of food on the water. It was a great experience and I really ate a lot. While on the boat I got to encounter a tarsier while floating on the river. They are cute little animals and was my first time seeing one. After leaving our group was able to check some older churches and experience the history in Bohol while taking many pictures. Afterwards our group was able to see the famous Chocolate Hills. It was beautiful just as people told me, and definitely a great experience. We stayed in a beautiful resort that was very accommodating to all of us and made us feel like a tourist so we can know the feeling of what our future customers might feel when they come to visit the Philippines.
After a day or two in Bohol we took another plane to Cebu to tour there as part of our educational trip. Bohol was lovely but now I am excited to see what Cebu has to offer. Our group heads to the airport for our flight to Cebu. We wait and then board our plane. One hour later we arrive in Cebu where I instantly loved the place. Many items were budget friendly, and I was able to bring stuff home as a gift. Our group checked in at our hotel and then we began to tour the city. I got to see the different churches and my favorite one was the Simala Church. It was a very big castle like church very beautiful and has a lot of history. I also enjoyed visiting the Santo Nino Church, which was built during the Spanish colonial times. It was a good experience getting to see the history of my country and a church that was built back during the Spanish era. I was told it was the oldest church in the Philippines that is still open until now I found that very fascinating. After leaving Santo Nino Church I got to see the Taboan Dried Fish Market, which had a lot of fresh dried fish that is my favorite. After we walked around the wet market we went back to our hotel and ate dinner and talked about the many sights and lessons we learned on our first day in Cebu. I took hundreds of photos with my friends to cherish the experience and to brainstorm the many things I can learn from this educational tour. On day two our group looked at some other tourist areas in Cebu.
The biggest part I remember is the shrines that were very huge and the fact that I could buy things very cheap. In Bohol I gained a lot of analysis of life there and the best it has to offer compared to Cebu. The Chocolate Hills was something I will never forget. I am very thankful for this trip because of the experience and the sights I got to see and the memories I got to share related to my HRM course.
